## Abstract Although perfusion is of major interest for many spinal cord disorders, there is no established, reproducible technique for evaluating blood flow or blood volume of the spinal cord in humans. Here the first report of __in vivo__ measurement of human spinal cord blood volume (scBV) is pr

β¦ Synopsis
Spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) is an important physiological variable that may undergo changes following cord injury. We measured SCBF in healthy dogs whose cord had been cooled, a technique that is useful for treating spinal cord injured patients. A microcomputerized system developed for efficient recording of SCBF on-line is described in this paper.

## Abstract In spinal cord injuries (SCI), tissue edema and consequent ischemia play an important role in neuronal damage. The assessment of quantitative spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) would be very valuable to help in understanding SCI pathophysiology. SCBF has previously been measured in animals w
## Abstract Accurate and reproducible measurement of bone blood flow has important clinical and experimental applications. Hydrogen washout is simple, safe, and widely used, but its use in bone tissue has not been validated. To this end, we have compared cortical bone blood flow measurements obtain
## Abstract The measurement of blood flow in bone is of interest in both clinical and experimental settings. Such determinations would ideally provide accurate, quantitative, and reproducible data with relatively simple and safe technology, even in the small bones of experimental animals. Methods t
